Belle and Sebastian es un grupo escocés de pop formado en Glasgow en enero de 1996 bajo la tutela de un curso de negocio musical y formado apoyándose principalmente en el talento creativo de Stuart Murdoch. Su primer álbum, Tigermilk, fue grabado como parte de dicho curso y lanzado por el sello independiente Electric Honey.
Tras haber firmado con un sello ligeramente más grande --Jeepster Records-- lanzaron el álbum If You're Feeling Sinister en 1996 y una secuencia de sencillos a lo largo de 1997.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

this is exactly the same as the original except all the chords have been moved up a semitone, so that none of the chords specifically have to be barred. if you want you can tune your guitar down half a step to acheive the sound on the record.
[Verse 1]
GCG Elope with me Miss Private and we’ll sail around the world AmEm I will be your Ferdinand and you my wayward girl AmD How many nights of talking in hotel rooms can you take? AmD How many nights of limping round on pagan holidays? CEm Oh elope with me in private and we’ll set something ablaze AmDEm A trail for the devil to erase
[Verse 2]
GCG San Francisco’s calling us, the Giants and Mets will play AmEm Piazza, New York catcher, are you straight or are you gay? AmD We hung about the stadium, we’ve got no place to stay AmD We hung about the tenderloin and tenderly you tell CEm About the saddest book you ever read, it always makes you cry AmDEm The statue’s crying too and well he may
[Verse 3]
GCG I love you I’ve a drowning grip on your adoring face AmEm I love you my responsibility has found a place AmD Beside you and strong warnings in the guise of gentle words AmD Come wave upon me from the family wider net absurd CEm “You’ll take care of her, I know it, you will do a better job” AmDEm Maybe, but not what she deserves
[Verse 4]
GCG Elope with me Miss Private and we’ll drink ourselves awake AmEm We’ll taste the coffee houses and award certificates AmD A privy seal to keep the feel of 1960 style AmD We’ll comment on the decor and we’ll help the passer by CEm And at dusk when work is over we’ll continue the debate AmDEm In a borrowed bedroom virginal and spare
[Verse 5]
GCG The catcher hits for .318 and catches every day AmEm The pitcher puts religion first and rests on holidays AmD He goes into cathedrals and lies prostrate on the floor AmD He knows the drink affects his speed he’s praying for A doorway CEm Back into the life he wants and the confession of the bench AmDEm Life outside the diamond is a wrench
[Verse 6]
GCG I wish that you were here with me to pass the dull weekend AmEm I know it wouldn’t come to love, my heroine pretend AmD A lady stepping from the songs we love until this day AmD You’d settle for an epitaph like “Walk Away, Renee” CEm The sun upon the roof in winter will draw you out like A flower
AmDEm Meet you at the statue in an hour AmDEm Meet you at the statue in an hour
